Medicine & Health Sciences

Our Schools of Medicine and Allied Health provide professional healthcare training based at both the Buckingham and Crewe campuses. The University’s aim is to put the student first. We do this by being small enough for our students to be an individual in a supportive community, and large enough to provide all the experience you need to progress your medical career.

Our integrated 4.5 year MB ChB programme is GMCaccredited and designed to ensure you develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to become a professional and ethical doctor.

Direct entry to the 4.5 year MB ChB programme is possible at school-leaver and graduate level, and is taught on both the Buckingham and Crewe campuses. Students are allocated to campus by a random ballot, unless there are mitigating circumstances.

We have a variety of health science courses at the Crewe campus. The twoyear BSc (Hons) Biomedical Sciences degree provides you with the knowledge to pursue a career in industry, or research. If you graduate with a 2.1 or above, you’re guaranteed entry onto the MB ChB course successful in the Multiple Mini Interview.

The Medical Foundation and one-year Pre-Med are available as potential pathways to medicine if you don’t reach the entry requirements or are returning to education (see the table on p68).

Most of our courses start in September, however, the MB ChB is only available for a January start. We accept applications throughout the year.
